Let us help you create the perfect mood your Party, Function, Restaurant , Cafe Bar, Private view, Community Event or Festival! This is our Story.

When we are not touring Europe, hosting our First Wednesday Club project, supporting community events such as Black History Month, running workshops or working in our studio we like getting out and helping to evoke atmospheres - we love to juxtapose a unique mix of Jazz, Soul, RnB, Hip Hop and Reggae, playing songs by Artists as varied as Billie Holiday, Lauryn Hill, Erica Badu, Grace Jones, Velvet Underground, Leonard Cohen and Bob Marley.

We first met through a love of dance music performing with the popular Reggae and Ska band “The Mangoes”. Together we immersed ourselves in the unique jamming scene at Boswell’s in Norwich - which we developed, with the kind help of Arts Council funding, into the now legendary Jazz and Blues Project at Norwich Arts Centre. We attended the renowned Berklee Jazz Summer School in Umbria together - and married soon after.

After a break living in Italy, studying at the Siena Jazz Institute and conceiving of our debut album Song Noir: Five Songs we are now back in the UK, happily becoming increasingly busy playing both as a duo and as part of an extended line-up for those larger events. Find out more about Song Noir and Francesca in this recent magazine feature.

Thank you - Francesca and Cliff of Song Noir
